#8 - Midnight Sun, Chapter 2: The Dead Don't Stay

Uploaded 01/21/2011

Only three months back on the job, and they’re crawling out of the woodwork. The gangsters and hoods with old axes to grind -- them you expected, but not this guy: Someone who knows you, someone who wants your undivided attention and is willing to do anything to get it. And certainly not the fugitive Captain America, who shows up at your doorstep, wanting a word. Maybe he thinks he can harness all your excess energy into something useful...something that can aid him in his grudge match with Tony Stark in the CIVIL WAR tearing through the Marvel U? Maybe this war is worth winning at any cost? And you get to thinking...
Story occurs before the events of Civil War #6-7
Moon Knight is paid a visit by Steve Rogers, Captain America. Marc is very short with him. He tells him that he is not interested in his war against Tony Stark. Marc tells him that he and Stark should just get a room and leave everyone else out of it. Cap says he's not there to recruit him. He doesn't approve of his methods. He says he's crazier than Frank Castle. Basically Cap tells him to keep out of the way. During this entire conversation, the spirit of Khonshu has been telling him to simply kill him.
Going to a crime scene, Moon Knight runs into Detective Mogart. It appears that the recent killings have a connection to Moon Knight's former enemy, the Midnight Man, except he's dead. Someone is going out of their way killing and mutulating a lot of people to get Moon Knight's attention.
Later Moon Knight drives by to "check" on Marlene. He wants to make sure she's safe. He sees her meet up with another man.
In another part of town, the killer is preparing another message for Moon Knight. There is a woman with him and part of his face is revealed to be a scarred mess.
